š¾ Nikon 14 24 2.8 Z Review
The Nikkor Z 14-24mm F2.8 is an ultra-wide zoom lens for Nikon's full-frame mirrorless system. A new optical design makes it 35% lighter than the FX version. It has four ED elements, as well as Nikon's Arneo and Nano Crystal coatings to reduce flare and other aberrations. It has a minimum focus distance of 0.28m at all focal lengths, and a max
Now, to see what Nikon does with their forthcoming 14-24 2.8. It doesn't sound like it will be as lightweight as this, but as a flagship Nikon Z-mount lens, it'll undoubtedly be insanely sharp, and who knows, maybe its slightly larger size will allow better transmission/lower vignetting.
Above: Nikon Z 14-24mm f2.8 S at 24mm, f11. At 24mm focal length the Z 14-24mm f2.8 S is again better than the F-Nikkor across the sensor at f2.8. Its FX-corner profits clearly from stopping down to f4.0 but stays softer than the FX-corner of the Z 14-30mm f4.0 S. Overall Nikonās new Z 14-24mm f2.8 S zoom lens performs better than its very
The Nikon Z 14-30mm f/4 S is far and away sharper than the 16-35mm f/4 F-mount lens, which never catches up until at least f/8 at any focal length. Against the 14-24mm f/2.8, itās a surprisingly fair matchup. At 14mm, the F-mount lens wins, while the Z-mount lens is ahead by a similar margin at 24mm. In between, theyāre pretty darn similar.
The new NIKKOR Z 17-28mm f/2.8 is ready to go anywhere. This extremely lightweight and portable lens weighs in at only 450 g (15.9 oz), which is approximately 30% lighter than the NIKKOR Z 14-24mm f/2.8. Itās also lighter and more compact than the NIKKOR Z 14-30mm f/4 lens, and uses a 67mm threaded mount for circular polarizers or neutral
In my Tamron SP 15-30/2.8 VC review Iāll put this zoom to the test on a 36MP Nikon D810 body to see whether itās a good match for the highest resolution full-frame Nikon DSLR. Iāll also compare its optical performance to the professional Nikon AF-S 14-24/2.8G to give you a good impression on which lens to get should you plan to venture
At the widest focal length of 15mm, the Tamron 15-30mm f/2.8 VC is about 1 mm longer than the Nikon 14-24mm f/2.8, which is certainly a disadvantage for situations where you have to go really wide. In terms of angle of view, this 1mm difference translates to 110° vs 114° ā a pretty visible change. But the loss of 1 mm comes with a gain of 6
The 17-28mm f/2.8 has quite a bit to offerāincluding the compact size, fast aperture, and silent autofocusāespecially for the $1,200 price. There are, of course, some compromises, but itās overall a really well-rounded lens that I enjoyed shooting with for a few months. Abby Ferguson.
The Z 28mm manages very good marks (3,800 lines) at f/2.8 and hits excellent marks in the f/4-11 (4,200-4,400 lines) range. It falls shy of the outstanding resolution for the Z 7 II, but is plenty
The Tamron 15-30mm has Vibration Control, better moisture resistance, much better flare resistance, costs $700 less, and performs at the same level as the Nikon 14-24mm at night. The only downsides are the Tamron's worse TStop rating and loss of 1mm at the wide-end. In the grand scheme of things, these are both very minor points.
The Nikon 14-24mm f/2.8G shows a moderate amount of lateral chromatic aberration. The lens starts out at roughly 1.37 pixels at 14mm, then gets reduced to close to a pixel at 16mm-18mm, then gets picked up again from there. CA is the worst at 24mm, as seen below: Letās now move on to lens comparisons.
NiSiās lens hood for the Nikon Z 14-24mm f/2.8 S is more durable and made from metal. The lens hood Nikon supply with the lens (HB-97) is made from plastic. The NiSi lens hood has the same flower shaped design and identical dimensions as the Nikon HB-97 lens hood so users can still use the large Nikon LC-K104 cap with it.
